An insightful book

This book has helped me become a better at troubleshooting by just rephrasing the questions I ask my self. Additionally it also tough me on different way of presenting arguments and how to detect whether someone (for instance a politician) is has more than just rhetorics to offer when making a speech.

Good content, hard to follow

I think the lack of passion/meaning made it hard to listen to. He’s quite monotone
